Then why do you make shit up if you have no need? Like my experiences? Because you make a lot of shit up. I had a lot of multi-cultural experience within the US. My father grew up in a German-Czech community in Texas. I had extensive contact with it when I was younger. The Germans in Texas have their own dialect of German, BTW. Not quite the Hoch Deutsch which is the modern standard, but close. It is also close enough where my father can carry on discussions with people fluent in Yiddish. My grandmother was of a generation which only spoke German. She didn't learn English until she was an adult. My dad grew up speaking German, Czech and English. In addition, I grew up close to the Texas border with Louisiana. That is heavily influenced by Cajun culture. Back then, it was common to meet people who only spoke Cajun French. And, of course, there are those of Mexican and other Hispanic descent in Texas. In addition, since I am on the autism spectrum, I have lived most of my life in an alien culture. Dealing with people like yourself who just make shit up and pretend it is reality is something I have never managed to fully understand. Or who feel the over-powering need to be a member of a group. To march in lockstep behind a leader. Or, well it is a long list. I realize you need to comfort yourself in your intellectual limitations by pretending I don't know anything outside of Google. But frankly, I don't give a shit about your insecurities. Your ignorance is something you need to own. It isn't my fault.
